Did you know what October is National Cyber Security Awareness Month? Well, it is. And before it's completely over, the Savvy Cyber Kids are coming to the rescue. That's the name of an Atlanta-based 501c3 organization with the mission of teaching parents what they need to be afraid of. The site offers a lesson plan for parents, although you'll have to register with the site to download it. You know: give up a little personal information.

Capitalizing on the success of The Social Network, the organization's founder is going on news shows and telling parents how to keep personal information off a Facebook profile.The organization has also released a book called The Savvy Cyber Kids at Home: The Family Gets a Computer, which is available on Amazon for $15.83. The site only has two wildly over-the-top reviews at the moment. Why not add your own? Post an Amazon review telling what the Savvy Cyber Kids protected you from. Top
